20 miler and video clips!

I am so happy and excited to have been able to run that run after a 90 mile week, and to feel as good and strong as I do.

110 miles in 8 days.

Bring on TAPER!!

Whatever happens at the Utah Valley Marathon, I am going into it healthy and strong, and knowing that I have more than put the work in.

Josh rode his bike along side me for the last 12 miles of today's 20 miler. The weather was NUTS! It was super windy (gusts up to 25mph) for awhile, it snowed for awhile, it rained for awhile, and thankfully the sun came out and things calmed down for the 10 miles in the middle.

It was great to have Josh by my side! He fought off a few dogs that wanted to eat me and got some video footage. Here are a couple of the very short clips from this morning.

I was not looking forward to my last 20-miler in that wind today, but I'm glad it's over. I'm also looking forward to tapering and I'm wondering how I will run 6 more after 20. I wasn't really feeling it today - sore and tired legs from lifting and bad weather. But it sounds like you had a great run. Good luck on June 9!

okay...you are going to rock that race like nobody's business....and Love the video..your form is fantastic tips on how you perfected that would be great!...or is it natural? Looks great either way. good luck and can't wait to hear about it.
